I'll wait for your final confirmation and then commit it. One problem: the gain settings have changed, now having a range of 0..64. How do these values map to the internal ones (0..0xffff) ? I *hope* there is value corresponding to EXACTLY 0x8000 (gain = 1) !!! The reason is that MADI is bit-exact and is used to tranport other values than just audio samples. This works of course only with exact unity gain. BTW, why was this change made ? For pro users (are there other of this card) this is a regression. Ciao, -- FA
